The Arcade Fire reside in Montreal, Quebec and are an interesting bunch! A quote from their website says "Win moved to Montreal four winters ago, as a panther moves from jungle to jungle—silently, with rocking shoulder blades. Looking for musicians, he found Régine, who combed his sleek fur and removed the thorns from his paws." .... right oh!!!
Their first album was excellent as is their recent release Neon Bible which I could have picked any track from. The new album makes use of a pipe organ, the Hurdy Gurdy, a military choir, and a full Hungarian orchestra, amongst others. Win Butler described the album as sounding "like standing by the ocean at night." Never stood in the Ocean at night? Give it a go by clicking below!
This is the video for their latest video - No cars go. Enjoy :0)
